Have had minimal contact with "real" DnD before, so I thought this might be a good way to start. I did watch a few videos before, and right after, starting, mostly on how game-mechanics, spells, dices and what not work. So far (15 hours?) I enjoy it. As mentioned, perhaps a bit too much content, but I think many side-quests can be ignored if you want to. I also found the spinning minimap annoying, but there is an option to lock it in place, north up. Made it quite easier.
